Music/Sound Consideration

For my music for The Box I am collaborating with a LCoM music student, called Nicolas Haquin. He has currently come up with a couple of very rough ideas and we are keeping in contact through Facebook as I keep each other updated on our current progress. Nick is also going to come into uni at some point to see the sets and characters so that he is somewhat more involved with the project and can get a better feel for the final music score. I'm really excited to work with a music student, it's a great opportunity to get some professional music written for my final film!

The Box - Character Profiles


Concept Art


 







Colour Palettes


Original idea for colour palettes - mainly considering backgrounds and environments.

Secondary consideration for colour, starting to think more about the characters and props within the environment.





Set Designs

Before I decided on a final set to start planning and building I wanted to draw out a few different ideas and then choose my favourite to develop further.
 
This was the first design I came up with, I went for an old timey feel to it, with stone and wood aesthetic, however I decided that this kind of environment was interesting but didn't quite fit the narrative or the characters I am developing.

 This set design was a little more modern and simple, I was inspired by oriental-style decor. This again was nice, but I wasn't sure if it fit. I did however like the wooden floor and I am considering taking this idea further.

 This was the final design and my favourite out of my experiments, this will be the environment I develop. My next steps are the look at the different colour schemes and how I can use props to tell a little bit more about my narrative.
